Appium client version 1.6.1-beta

Support
1

Hi,

I understand that in order to use the new client beta version i need to perform:

  1. Clone this Appium git to your local git clone https://github.com/appium/appium.git
  2. Once the download is complete, Run reset.sh
  3. Open Appium Client
  4. Select “Developer settings” and enable it.
  5. Select Use External NodeJS Binary to “Your local node bin folder path”
  6. Select Use External Appium Package to “Your Appium Local clone folder path”
  7. Start the Appium Server.

But when im using the downloaded folder (section #6),
it returns error :"…/Downloads/appium-1.6.1: is a directory"
so im using :" …Downloads/appium-1.6.1-beta/packweb.json"
And it return:

Launching Appium with command: /Users/miron/Downloads/appium-1.6.1-beta/packweb.json --debug-log-spacing --log “/tmp/appium.log” --log-level “debug” --local-timezone --platform-version “8.1” --platform-name “iOS” --app “/Users/miron/Desktop/Files/pingid.ipa” --udid “db965483453320c02bb5907be3b02248b2f99576” --no-reset --show-ios-log --show-ios-log --device-name “iPhone 5s” --native-instruments-lib

/Users/miron/Downloads/appium-1.6.1-beta/packweb.json: line 2: packages:: command not found

/Users/miron/Downloads/appium-1.6.1-beta/packweb.json: line 3: appium-core:: command not found

[Appium] Welcome to Appium v1.6.1-beta

Is this the correct way?
